Last updated: 4 July 2026 · Data source: official JoSAA 2024 final-round Opening & Closing Ranks (10,900+ rows).
Enter your JEE Main (CRL) or JEE Advanced rank, pick your category, gender pool and seat quota, and the predictor matches you against 10,900+ official JoSAA 2024 closing-rank rows — every IIT, NIT, IIIT and GFTI program, for every category and quota combination that JoSAA published. It is not a guess or an "AI estimate": each row is a real, final-round closing rank from the last completed admission cycle. We use the last round (the round after which seats stop moving) because that closing rank is the widest the door opened all year — the realistic boundary of who got in.
Each result is tagged safe, target or reach relative to your rank. A branch is safe when its 2024 closing rank sits at least ~500 ranks below yours (comfortable margin), target when your rank is close to the closing rank, and reach when your rank is slightly worse than last year's closing rank — possible only if this year's cutoff loosens. Cutoffs shift year to year with paper difficulty, number of test-takers and seat-matrix changes, so treat the bands as a shortlist, not a promise.
Most "predictors" hide their data or pad results with inflated volumes. Ours is transparent: the closing ranks come straight from JoSAA's published Opening & Closing Rank (OR-CR) archive for 2024, the most recent complete cycle. That is the same source counsellors charging ₹2,000+ use. When 2026 round data is published, we refresh these rows. You can cross-check any prediction against the official OR-CR tool — we link it in the sidebar for exactly that reason.
Closing ranks widen as you move from OPEN to reserved categories, because the rank pool for each category is separate. For a given branch and institute, the typical ordering of closing ranks (numerically largest = most relaxed) runs OPEN < EWS ≈ OBC-NCL < SC < ST — though the exact spread varies by institute. Practically:
Set your category correctly before predicting — using OPEN when you are eligible for OBC-NCL, SC or ST will badly under-report your options. PwD (Person-with-Disability) seats are a further sub-pool with their own relaxed ranks; tick the PwD box if it applies.
IITs and IIITs admit purely on All-India (AI) quota — your home state does not matter. But NITs and most GFTIs split seats into Home State (HS) and Other State (OS) quotas. Roughly half the seats at each NIT are reserved for candidates whose Class 12 state matches the NIT's state (HS), and HS closing ranks are usually far more relaxed than OS at the same NIT. This is one of the biggest levers Indian students miss: your HS-quota NIT is almost always a better bet than the same-branch seat at an out-of-state NIT. Choose the quota that reflects where you did Class 12 — the predictor filters accordingly.
JoSAA runs multiple rounds (typically six). In early rounds (Round 1), closing ranks are tighter because top rankers hold seats they may later drop through float/slide/freeze decisions and withdrawals. As rounds progress, seats vacated by students moving up or leaving push closing ranks outward, so a branch that looked out of reach in Round 1 can become attainable by Round 5–6. Our predictor uses final-round data (the widest the cutoff got), so it reflects the best-case boundary. If your rank is on the edge of a target branch, do not panic after Round 1 — keep your choices locked and let later rounds work in your favour.

It uses 10,900+ official JoSAA 2024 final-round closing-rank rows covering every IIT, NIT, IIIT and GFTI program, across all categories, quotas and gender pools. The rows come from JoSAA's published Opening & Closing Rank (OR-CR) archive.
It reflects the last completed cycle's real cutoffs, so it is a strong shortlist — but not a guarantee. Cutoffs shift each year with paper difficulty, number of candidates and seat-matrix changes. Use it to build your choice list, then confirm on josaa.nic.in.

NITs and most GFTIs reserve about half their seats for Home-State candidates (those who did Class 12 in the NIT's state). HS closing ranks are usually far more relaxed than Other-State ranks at the same NIT. IITs and IIITs admit only on All-India quota.
Safe = the 2024 closing rank is at least ~500 ranks below yours (comfortable). Target = your rank is close to the closing rank. Reach = your rank is slightly worse than last year's closing rank, possible only if this year's cutoff loosens.
Yes. Early rounds have tighter cutoffs; as seats are vacated in later rounds, closing ranks widen. Our predictor uses final-round data, which is the widest (best-case) boundary.
IITs and NITs run extra female-only seats with their own, often more relaxed, closing ranks. Set the gender pool to Female-only to surface branches you might not get in the gender-neutral pool.
Fill the maximum you can, ordered strictly by genuine preference (best to good). There is no penalty for a long list, and every empty slot is a seat you can never be allotted.
OPEN (GEN), EWS, OBC-NCL, SC and ST, each with a PwD sub-pool. Reserved categories have more relaxed closing ranks, so set your correct category before predicting.
